About

Welcome to wonderland sam, where I hope you’ll find inspiration for living an intentional, creative, and healthy life through style, travel, and wellness.

Why the name? Oh, only because I have had a slight fascinationobsession with Alice in Wonderland since I can remember, and I got to fully realize my lifelong dream of playing Alice in college. Oh yeah, I’m an actress.

Maybe you saw me surviving the longest in this horror film – or training hardcore fighters in this commercial. Either way, living in Los Angeles and committed to that hustle, yo.

Here’s the brief “tell me about yourself”. I was born in Japan (military brat) and finally settled in the good ol’ country state of Texas. I studied theatre at The University of Texas and eventually made the move out west with my husband and the cutest dog in the world (totally not subjective). So, here I am – navigating this thing we call our 20’s and trying new things along the way. Probably drinking too much coffee and eating too many slices of pizza.

I use my wardrobe as a creative outlet, try to travel as much as I can, and focus on taking care of myself – both mind and body, all while helping build a community of inspiring women. You’ll find all of that around here plus the occasional DIY and (hopefully) pretty pictures.

Oh my gosh, thank you! Trying to make the best of it. 🙂 I usually make it back to Austin about once a year but only for a few days to see family. If you’re ever in LA again, let me know! I’ll have to go through your travel archives because I’m going to Europe again next fall. And your 30 before 30 list? Girl after my own heart. 😉
